New PARcast Available: The Cost of Owning Technology podcast with Ken Hamma

07 July 2008

Ken Hamma, Executive Director for Digital Policy and Initiatives at the J. Paul Getty Trust, talks with Gunter Waibel about how owning technology requires significant ongoing investment, but various options exist that can bring down costs and lead to a more collaborative future.

Our podcasts are recorded impromptu interviews in which we ask the question, "What's keeping you awake at night?" of people we come across in our travels who are thinking ahead, worrying about big issues or imagining the next big thing.

This is the sixth podcast in our continuing series.

PARcasts are available on our Web site and now also in the iTunes Store.

We are a worldwide library cooperative, owned, governed and sustained by members since 1967. Our public purpose is a statement of commitment to each other—that we will work together to improve access to the information held in libraries around the globe, and find ways to reduce costs for libraries through collaboration.
